Before long, the coach, the players, and everyone in the stands could not believe their eyes. This little nobody, who had never played in a formal game, was doing everything right like a star! Just before the end of the game, Sam stopped a pass and ran all the way for the winning goal! The fans suddenly cheered with great excitement!

After the game was over, the coach noticed Sam sitting in a corner all alone. The coach came to him and said, "Kid, I can't believe it. You were fantastic! Tell me how you did it." Sam looked at the coach with tears in his eyes, and said, "Well, you know my dad died, but did you know he was blind?"
